Just as Trump and Xi might be shaking hands today we are delivering deep dive into more data from the company 'ZRON'. A digital Espionage-as-a-service shop, that hacked US embassy emails, runs big-data analysis operations on national and foreign targets for China's security services. There is a lot of ground to cover, so stay with us and let's go. 1/13

Here's how exactly Telegram provides user data to U.S. authorities. A letter recently filed in court shows how Telegram transfers that data, such as IP address and phone number. More: 404media.co/heres-what-teleg…

Seems like we have a massive home-router vulnerability that can be exploited: "The vulnerability can be triggered remotely over WiFi without knowledge of the network key or completion of a normal WPS enrollment. Exploitation provides controlled information disclosure and arbitrary code execution." quentinkaiser.be/security/20…

Remember calling it when it was revealed that iPhone11 had a HW flaw that it was already exploited in the wild by for a while by digital forensics companies around the world.
‼️BREAKING: Cellebrite unveiled zero-day LOKI, a boot ROM exploit for Apple chips from iPod touch 2 to iPhone 11. Its Hexacon slide calls it a timing race that some early proofs of concept won just 1 in 25 times. Boot ROM code is burned into the chip. No update can fix it.

Shanghai Fuhua Network Technology has been building network data flow surveillance and VPN detection systems for a while in China. They are part of the ever growing eco-system of companies that provide network-traffic control tools for government and public institutions. It seems that after years of half-hearted internet control ( also often hampered by technical realities ), Beijing has decided to giving the whole issue another push lately.

Two years ago I released the USB Army Knife, this combined WiFi, BTLE & USB attacks into a single dongle with a unified language. Two years of long nights later I’m teasing the UAK Pro More WiFi & BTLE attacks, mic, IR TX, mesh networking and more (see 🧵) Coming soon!!!
For over a year my free time has been spent turning this ‘LilyGo T-Dongle S3’ into hacking tool USB/WiFi/BT which I’ve named the USB Army Knife. This device is cheap, tiny, has a screen, SPI port, button and can do a ton of stuff with the ESP32-S3 inside. It has consumed me! 🧵

In the latest documentary form AlJazeera's '101 East' an operator of a scam compound operation in Cambodia, admits that he is running 'internet surveillance'. As his operation seems to be also close to parts of the Chinese security establishment, it would not be surprising if some of the 'cross border surveillance operations' or even politically aimed APT ops might run through those places. Either way, its a great piece of journalism and is worth a watch...

Again, fantastic work by @billmarczak @jsrailton and all the other folks at @citizenlab : This report exposes zero-click spyware delivered via targeted ads, which we call AdFection, and is the first technical demonstration that mercenary spyware is being distributed via targeted advertisements."citizenlab.ca/research/how-d…

🚨NEW INVESTIGATION: zero-click mercenary spyware hacking via targeted ads. A normal-looking ad loads. If you're a target, you're infected. No click needed. To protect yourself, block ads now. First time it's been confirmed in the wild. We call it #AdFection. Candiru spyware infections at @AJEnglish. 45+ devices infected. Same ad pipeline operated by Israeli company Discover-Tech reached NATO, European Parliament, dozens of gov networks & critical infrastructure incl US nuclear giant Westinghouse. Confiant, which worked with us, found signs ads were displayed at US @DeptofWar, IAEA & ICC. Investigation ongoing 1/ READ our report by @billmarczak @WolfieChristl, me Astrid Perry, Siena Anstis & Ron Deibert : citizenlab.ca/research/how-d… Confiant's blog: blog.confiant.com/p/adint-we…

We found source code for another Chinese made Darksword/Coruna-scam-kit that mentions its iOS26 compatibility with an extension they call 'Divine Seagull'. Is it the real thing or just another round of R&D and window-dressing ? 1/3

Built mainly on a well known Darksword/Coruna workflow, named here 'Godkiller', it also provided two new loader: 'Liangri_26' and 'Nextgen'. Especially the later running a set of parallel processes to get 'primitives' to hand down the chain. 2/3

On the Chinese market Darksword/Coruna inspired C2 frameworks are still proliferating and people are very motivated to try to expand them past its limitations, but the big 'win' hasn't been achieved yet. Could 'Divine Seagull' be the breakthrough ? Thanks to @Huntio 'attack capture' we got access to its source code.
